Jump to: navigation, search

Monokote is a commercially available light weight plastic shrink wrap film available in various color schemes with an adhesive on one side, used to cover and form the surfaces of a model aircraft. The material is cut to size and applied to the airframe surfaces using a hobby iron or heat gun. The name Monokote alludes to monocoque, a type of stressed skin airframe construction.

Monokote is also a type of fireproofing material, which is gypsum-based and is spray-applied.[1]
